2B-2 WHEEL ALIGNMENT
DIAGNOSIS
TIRE DIAGNOSIS
Irregular and Premature Wear
Irregular and premature tire wear has many causes.
Some of them are incorrect inflation pressures, lack of
regular rotation, poor driving habits, or improper wheel
alignment.
Rotate the tires if :
lThe front tire wear is different from the rear.
lThe left and right front tire wear is unequal.
lThe left and right rear tire wear is unequal, Check
wheel alignment if :
lThe left and right front tire wear is unequal.
lThe wear is uneven across the tread of either front
tire.
lThe front tire treads are scuffed with “feather” edges
on the side of the tread ribs or blocks.
Tread Wear Indicators
The original equipment tires have built-in tread wear
indicators to show when the tires need replacement.
These indicators appear as bands when the tire tread
depth becomes shallow. Tire replacement is
recommended when the indicators appear in three or
more grooves at six locations.
Radial Tire Waddle
Waddle is side-to-side movement at the front or rear of
the vehicle. It is caused by the steel belt not being straight
within the tire, or by excessive lateral runout of the tire
or wheel.
The vehicle must be road tested to determine which end
of the vehicle has the faulty tire. The rear end of the
vehicle will shake from side to side or “waddle” if the
waddle tire is on the rear of the vehicle. From the driver’s
seat, it feels as though someone is pushing on the side
of the vehicle. If the faulty tire is on the front of the vehicle,
the waddle is more visual. The front sheet meld appears
to be moving back and forth, and the drivers seat feels
like the pivot point in the vehicle.
Waddle can be diagnosed using the method of
substituting known good tire and wheel assemblies on
the problem vehicle
1. Road test the vehicle to determine if the waddle is
coming from the front or the rear of the vehicle.
2. Install good tires and wheels from a similar vehicle in
place of those on the offending end of the problem
vehicle. If the source of the waddle is not obvious,
change the rear tires.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT 2B-5
VIBRATION DIAGNOSIS
Wheel imbalance causes most highway speed vibration
problems. A vibration can remain after dynamic
balancing because:
lA tire is out of round.
lA rim is out of round.
lA tire stiffness variation exists.
Measuring tire and wheel free runout will uncover only
part of the problem, All three causes, known as loaded
radial runout, must be checked using method of
substituting known good tire and wheel assemblies on
the problem vehicle.
Preliminary Checks
Prior to performing any work, always road test the car
and perform a careful visual inspection for:
lObvious tire and wheel runout.
lObvious drive axle runout.
lImproper tire inflation.
lIncorrect trim height.
lBent or damaged wheels.
lDebris build-up on the tire or the wheel.
lIrregular or excessive tire wear.
lImproper tire bead seating on the rim,
lImperfections in the tires, including: tread
deformations, separations, or bulges from impact
damage. Slight sidewall indentations are normal and
will not affect ride quality.
Tire Balancing
Balance is the easiest procedure to perform and should
be done first if the vibration occurs at high speeds. Do
an off-vehicle, two-plane dynamic balance first to correct
any imbalance in the tire and wheel assembly.
An on-vehicle finish balance will correct any brake drum,
rotor, or wheel cover imbalance, If balancing does not
correct the high-speed vibration, or if the vibration occurs
at low speeds, runout is the probable cause.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
INSPECTION
Steering Wheel Freeplay Inspection Procedure
1. Start the engine and set the wheels in straight ahead position.
2. Slightly move the steering wheel to the left and right and
measure steering wheel free play when the front wheel is
start to move.
Notice
If exceeds specification, the steering column shaft
connections and steering linkage .clearance. Replace or
repair if necessary.
Steering Angle Inspection Procedure
1. Place the front wheel on a measuring tool.
2. Rotate steering wheel all the way right and left and measure
steering angle
Notice
If out of standard, check or adjust toe-in.

Steering Effort Inspection Procedure
1 Place a vehicle on the paved flat ground with front wheels
in a straight ahead position.
2 Start the engine and run it at 1,000rpm.
3 Using a scale, measure the steering effort in both directions.
Notice
The difference in steering effort of left and right should be
within 0.6 kg.
StandardMax. 3.0kg
StandardMax. 30mm
